We are learning to use the features of explanation writing to inform and persuade others.

Swimming skills apart from saving your life are also beneficial for your health. Swimming keeps us fit. In New Zealand we are surrounded by water. Every summer or when the weather is warm, thousands of people, adults and children swarm to our beautiful clean beaches. Tourists also enjoy our beaches. Some beaches have strong rips and learning to swim and developing essential survival skills in the water can save your life and also provide you with the skills to save the life of someone else.
Swimming is an essential part of New Zealand Education.
